Believe


BELIEVE Picture a man’s mind that is filled with pollution. When it comes to problem solving death and destruction is his only solution. Now visualize this same man undergoing a spiritual evolution; Now to this world he wants to leave a contribution. He knows he must look inside his own skin and wage a personal battle with demons within; He reminds himself on a daily basis that evil can’t win. The fight for his survival is getting harder and harder; You see in his life there was no Coach Carter. People told him he was dumb so he made it his business to get smarter; He was told he will never go anywhere in life so he’s determined to go farther. To all those who told me I wouldn’t achieve. I have one simple question now, do you believe?
